EVER WANTED TO BE SOMEONE ELSE? NOW YOU CAN.
Bringing new meaning to the term identity crisis , this instant cult comedy classic boIdly launched the feature fiIm careers of its director, music video visionary Spike Jonze (nominated for an Academy Award® for Best Director), and its screenwriter, master of existentialist surrealism Charlie Kaufman (also nominated for Best OriginaI ScreenpIay).
Failed street puppeteer Craig Schwarz (John Cusack) reluctantIy gets a day job to financialIy support his wife Lotte (Cameron Diaz) and their ever-expanding menagerie of pets crammed in their small, dimly-Iit New York apartment. Working as a fiIe clerk at LesterCorp (hidden away on Floor 7½ of the Mertin-FIemmer BuiIding), and spending most of his time lusting after aloof co-worker Maxine (Catherine Keener), one day Craig makes an incredibIe discovery: a hidden door that leads to a portal inside the mind of legendary actor John Malkovich (John MaIkovich), seeing Iife through his eyes for fifteen minutes before being spat back out on the New Jersey Turnpike. Craig shares his find with Lotte and Maxine, Ieading to an explosive chain of events that will irrevocabIy alter the lives of aIl three... and of course, the unwitting Malkovich.
Jonze and Kaufman s unforgettabIy bizarre comic fantasia is as hilarious and innovative now as it was two decades ago, and is presented here in a director-approved transfer with bonus features never reIeased in the UK before.
